Due to new modern technology it is now possible to reduce the appearance of a tattoo or remove it completely depending on its location, size, and shape, with a process called laser tattoo removal. Usually in just one visit a tattoo can be visibly faded, but if you follow through with a full course of treatment then it is possible to completely remove the tattoo from your skin.
Although there are creams on the market that offer some hope to fade out the appearance of a tattoo, most of the time it is virtually impossible to remove a tattoo through any natural processes. Therefore, it has been proven that laser removal is the best choice if you want to get rid of a tattoo. Most patients comment that the treatment is similar to the burning and stinging sensation that you feel when you first get a tattoo but like most medical treatments the pain varies from patient to patient. After treatment is complete the pain quickly dissipates and the area of skin returns to normal.
After each treatment most patients are able to return to their normal daily routine without any interruptions, although it is advisable that you ...
... refrain from any strenuous activities such as excessive exercise. It is also advised that sunscreen be used on the areas of skin that are subject to the laser treatment process and if the area is heavily exposed to the sun to limit your time in the sun for a week or two.
It is impossible to predict how many treatments will be needed to completely remove a tattoo given the fact that each tattoo varies in size and colour, but on average to completely remove a tattoo most people undergo eight to 12 treatments. Usually you will be invited to sit down for a free consultation prior to any treatments and the performing surgeon can make a rough estimate on what time frame you should expect to be able to see results within.
